Buildings and other locations across Kansas will be lit up in orange lights to help raise awareness of work zone safety this week.

 Numerous KDOT buildings across the state will be lit in orange in honor of National Work Zone Awareness Week, including the Governor's Mansion in Topeka. Locally, the City of Neodesha fountain will be lit up orange.

 People are encouraged to wear something orange all week, but especially on Go Orange Day in Kansas tomorrow to show support and appreciation for highway workers and their efforts.

 The Go Orange effort is part of National Work Zone Awareness Week, a national safety campaign that KDOT and numerous partner organizations participate in every year. The campaign highlights the dangers faced by highway workers and motorists in work zones and promotes safer behaviors.
